Easter 2012

OH. MY. GOODNESS. I completely forgot I had started working on this post and never finished it. So, I’m posting it now since, you know, this is my record of life with Lucy. Wow.

She was beside herself with excitement. Then, it was time for the big egg hunt. It was so much fun seeing her walk around the yard and...

March 5, 2012 in Cooking, Food, Life, Lucy

Joe had to work on Sunday, so after having lunch with him at the museum, Lucy and I loaded up and headed to Atlanta for a Family Day at Georgia Public Broadcasting. Lucy was super psyched to be meeting Curious George and Buddy from...

Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

February 26, 2012 in Life, Lucy

Ok, so there weren’t lions and bears, but we certainly saw tigers and elephants last weekend. We surprised Lucy and took her to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus in Atlanta. Lucy is obsessed with elephants and since Joe had the opportunity...

A Piercing Question

January 25, 2012 in Life, Lucy

Lucy and I were at one of her favorite play places on Sunday when a man asked me if she was a boy. No, she’s a girl. I mean, she was dressed completely in pink, which I thought would have been a dead giveaway....

Judgey Moms who Judge

in Grrr, Life, Lucy

My daughter is 2, and she isn’t potty training, still sleeps in her crib and doesn’t use a regular cup. There. I said it. It feels like it’s taboo to admit things like that. I’ve been around some moms lately who have looked down...
